Event Summary

Secomea published its State of Industrial Remote Access 2026 report, highlighting a gap in third-party access governance in manufacturing OT environments. The report finds that 57% of North American organizations manage six or more external vendors with remote access, yet only 46% have full auditability and 23% review credentials monthly. Secomea recommends identity-based access, just-in-time access, centralized workflows, and audit trails. The report also notes a shift toward standardized platforms for vendor access management.
